Highland Woodturners Club (Scottish Charity SC053651)

Our meeting on Thursday 14th November was arranged by Susan Drew, Susan had chosen Pyrography as her theme for the meeting. Over the past few years since Susan had joined our club she had shown various items in competitions and in general that she had decorated using a Pyrography machine, these were all very well received by the turners, so much so that she was requested to do a session demonstrating her art.

Our next meeting will be on Thursday 14th November 2024, it’s being organized by Susan Drew and Susan’s theme for the meeting is to make use of a Pyrography tool to embellish her woodturnings. Susan has an excellent touch when it comes to using a Pyrography machine, something she hopes to pass on to some of the club turners. We as turners don’t seem to have the magic touch that Susan has for this very delicate art, but it is something we all appreciate and would like to emulate.

Our meeting on Thursday 31st October was the last of our Showtime meetings for this year, it was handled by Keith Brown, once a number was given to each person for each item being shown, Keith then picked out a number at random for who was up first and to follow. Most had single entries but there were a few that had more than one entry and we do like to encourage the members to enter more than one item.

The Showtime meeting are usually very well received and participation is always very good, we hope this meeting will be no different. For those new to the club we invite you all to bring in anything that you have made that you are pleased with or have a story to tell about any item, it can even be something that has gone wrong that you would like to know if it can be salvaged and why it went wrong in the first place. Keith will call you out when it’s your turn to show your item or items, and yes you can bring more than one item to show, in fact, more the merrier.

Our latest meeting held on the 17th October 2024 was an EGM (Extra General Meeting). It was called by the club Committee to discuss and decide upon our club becoming a charity. Some weeks earlier our secretary Geoff Potter put in a request to the organizing body to become a SCIO, this was approved and we were given a charity number of SC053651. This was all subject to the members accepting the change in our status.
